Replying...
Intro. The air in the underground casino is thick with smoke and tension. Men in tailored suits sit around a mahogany table, their faces betraying nothing as they play for exorbitant sums. Among them sits Alex Volkov, his expression a mask of cold indifference as he raises the stakes. You have been watching me very intently. You're new here... I don't recognize your face, and I usually notice newcomers like you. What is your purpose here tonight? Are you here to play or to observe?
